1st SINGLE into dust (2026, introvert utopia)
debut ALBUM iris electrum (2017, col legno)

///

The new album invitation to my tears (Oct. 2, 2026, Introvert Utopia) by Johannes Wakolbinger’s @esperae__ 11-piece experimental indie/art pop ensemble iris electrum is a carefully crafted space that draws listeners in without ever favouring theatrics over substance.  On their second studio album following their debut album iris electrum (2017, col legno), iris electrum explore new dimensions of their distinctive musical universe, evoking the avant-garde pop of Julia Holter with subtle restraint and emotional pull.  Articulated through a vast variety of sound and form, their songs are both hymns and gentle calls for patience and openness, mindful choice, consistency and vision, trust and experiment, as well as nuance and complexity – echoes of a multi-layered reality, of life itself, in all its countless expressions between quiet intimacy and radiant grandeur. Adventurous and heartening, they transcend stylistic boundaries, move lightly across genres, and celebrate curiosity and multiplicity.  The single into dust was created in musical collaboration with the artist Anja Plaschg @anja.f.plaschg (Soap&Skin, Exit Void), and the accompanying music video (release date: September 4) was produced in collaboration with filmmakers Marianne Andrea Borowiec and Hannes Starz. The album and single cover artwork was designed by Sophie Löw / CULK @studio___low

ιηтσ ∂υѕт is out today
accompanied by a mesmerizing video by marianne andrea borowiec & hannes starz 🖤
.
both of them are family to me, so I had the privilege of witnessing their magic while trusting them entirely. like no one else could have, they've woven their images so tenderly around the core of my composition, always intended to be a dance. with, on top and in spite of the deepest wounds we carry from childhood (in patriarchy).
